Method

Prepare the bun tins with paper cases.

Cream the butter and the sugar until light and fluffy.  Beat the egg and add slowly beating well to return to light and fluffy.  Add a little flour if necessary to prevent it curdling.  Sift the flour and Baking Powder and fold into the butter and sugar mixture.  Add sufficient milk to make a soft dropping consistency.  Add the fruit and lemon rind.

Half fill the bun cases and bake in a moderate oven (180°C/350°F or Gas Mark 4) for 15 - 20 minutes.
